You first need to be using a compiler that will produce embeddable code. It has to have its own runtime environment and make no use of operating system features. I know Aonix was selling something like this, as are a number of other compiler manufacturers. Which compiler are you using? >From there, you need to be a little more specific about your 80x86 system. Are you talking about a basic, standard issue PC with a hard disk and you want to put a program on the disk which will be loaded at powerup? Or is this a bare board 80x86 wherein you have some sort of PROM you load up with your software and boot from there? This sort of problem is difficult to answer without a lot of specifics about your system. If you provide a little more info, you will likely find more help here.
